CMSP 1A (FPL) SP (12/04) ____________________ Fecha State of California—Health and Human Services Agency Department of Health Services County Medical Services Program IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE COUNTY MEDICAL SERVICES PROGRAM (CMSP) PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT CMSP IS NOT THE MEDI-CAL PROGRAM. When eligible for CMSP, you will receive a plastic State of California Benefits Identification Card (BIC) and a MedImpact (MI) card. Please see the backside of this notice for instructions on when to use these cards. The length of time you will be eligible to receive CMSP benefits is limited. You will be notified of this limited certification period. MISUSE OF YOUR BIC OR MI CARDS COULD RESULT IN A REDUCTION OF YOUR BENEFITS, TERMINATION OF YOUR ELIGIBILITY, AND/OR PROSECUTION (TITLE 22, CCR, SECTION 50733(d)). BENEFITS. You should always carry your cards with you. Your cards may be used only by you to receive the following care: Acute inpatient hospital care (including acute inpatient rehabilitation) Adult day health care services Medical supplies, when prescribed by a licensed practitioner within the scope of his/her practice, or durable medical equipment dealers, and prosthetic and orthotic providers Audiology services Nonemergency medical transportation Blood and blood derivatives Occupational therapy services Optometry services (see excluded benefits below) Chronic hemodialysis services Outpatient clinic services Dental services Outpatient heroin detoxification services Durable medical equipment Pharmaceutical services provided by network pharmacists (ask your county department for a list of network pharmacies) Emergency air and ground ambulance services Hearing aids Physical therapy services Physicians’ services Home health agency services Hospital outpatient services Laboratory and radiology services Podiatry services Prosthetic and orthotic appliances Rehabilitation clinics Speech therapy services EXCLUDED BENEFITS. CMSP does not include the following services: Eye appliances including frames, lenses, contact lenses, low-vision aids, and prosthetic eyes. Pregnancy-related services (contact your county eligibility office) Long-term care facility services (contact your county eligibility office) Services of chiropractors, acupuncturists, psychologists, licensed clinical social workers, or marriage and family therapists If you need or desire medical care which is not covered by CMSP, you must pay for it yourself or make other arrangements with the provider. Check with your county health department for possible health care resources available in your county. See the backside of this notice for additional important information. CMSP INFORMATION NOTICE 01 (12/04) ENFORCEMENT OF CMSP AS A SECONDARY PAYER. CMSP is the “provider of last resort.” If you are infected with HIV or AIDS, are seeking family planning services, or have Hepatitis C, you may be eligible for services through other state programs. The other state programs are: 1. California AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP)—for information, call (916) 445-0553. 2. Family Planning, Access, Care, and Treatment Program (Family PACT)—for information, call (800) 942-1054. 3. Hepatitis C—Drug Company Patient Assistance Programs (PAPs)—information is available on the internet at: www.helpingpatients.org. Your medical provider may also be able to provide information. You must use these programs before receiving services from CMSP. If you need prescriptions, your physician or pharmacy will need to provide documentation that you were not able to obtain services from the above mentioned programs. Without this proof, medications related to medical conditions covered by the above programs will be denied. Information on the prior approval process can be found at www.cmspcounties.org. USING YOUR CARD. You should always carry your BIC and MI cards with you. Your providers will use the plastic BIC card to identify you and process your share-of-cost (SOC), if any. Additionally, your pharmacy will use the MI card to bill CMSP for prescriptions. In an emergency, obtain medical care immediately, even if you do not have your cards with you. Remember, however, to tell the provider that you are covered by CMSP and show the provider your card(s) as soon as possible after you have received care. PRIOR AUTHORIZATIONS. There may be some limitations on the amount of care you may receive with your cards. Also, many services may require prior approval by CMSP consultants before they are given. Your doctor or other provider should know the limitations, and is responsible to request any necessary approval from the California Department of Health Services. (Note: Local Medi-Cal field offices approve treatment requests for CMSP medical services, dental service requests are processed by Denti-Cal, and pharmacy service requests are processed by MI.) COPAYMENTS. You may be required to pay $1 for medication prescriptions, $1 for office visits, and $5 for emergency room visits which are not emergencies. SHARE-OF-COST. Some persons eligible for CMSP have a SOC obligation. If you have a SOC, you must pay, or agree to pay, part of your monthly income toward your medical expenses before CMSP will pay for covered benefits. Your county worker will explain how this works. CERTIFICATION PERIODS. Depending on what CMSP eligibility category you are in, your time on CMSP (certification period) will be different. Clients who are eligible for emergency services only will be certified for two months. Clients with a SOC will be certified for three months and clients without a SOC will be certified for six months. If you have a need to continue services beyond your certification period, you will need to apply for benefits again. FINDING A PROVIDER. Remember: the person or facility providing care does not have to accept the BIC or MI cards. Find out if the provider accepts the card before you go for treatment or services. It is your responsibility to show the provider your cards at the time you receive services. CMSP payments to your provider are considered payment in full for the services which you receive, although these payments may be less than a provider’s usual and customary charges. Aside from your possible SOC, you are not obligated to pay any difference between the provider’s charges and CMSP’s rate of payment. BILLING THE PROGRAM. Only Medi-Cal or MI providers of services are eligible to bill CMSP. If your provider does not accept CMSP and you decide to pay for the services in order to continue seeing that provider, CMSP cannot reimburse you for those services. OTHER HEALTH COVERAGE. You are required to notify your county eligibility office if you are covered by any health insurance carrier. Other health coverage (OHC) information will be identified on your CMSP eligibility record, and providers of service must bill the OHC prior to billing CMSP. THIRD PARTY LIABILITY. You are required to report to your county eligibility office when CMSP will be billed for health care services you received as a result of an accident or injury caused by some other person’s action or failure to act. FAIR HEARING. If you are dissatisfied with any decisions regarding medical care under the CMSP, you have the right to request a hearing by the Department of Social Services. You should either request a copy of the Medical Care Hearing Request, form CMSP 1175, from your eligibility worker or telephone the Public Inquiry and Response Unit at 1-800-952-5253. The completed form CMSP 1175 should be mailed to the address listed on the form.
